Simple budget worksheet

The budget worksheet is the best place to begin for most people. The first time you fill out your budget worksheet you may estimate some amounts, which is fine. Use this first draft to give you an honest picture of your current financial situation. Modify the worksheet, if you’d like to see improvements, and save it under a different name. If you need assistance call 0800 345 123 to talk to a qualified Financial Mentor.
